I sincerely hope this was written tongue-in-cheek. Because I gotta tell ya…of all the manufactured recreational outrage topics lately, the Confederate flag “issue” was one of the absolute lamest. ---

Thread’s over, guys. **Clothy** has decreed it lame. So sorry I disturbed the peace and tranquility of your delusionary world, **Clothy**. Rest assured I shall try very hard to do just that in the future, whenever and wherever possible. ---

I dunno, the reasons and circumstances are kind of unimportant to me in this one. The entire reason for that flag in modern times was to spit in the face of civil rights. I have no support or sympathy for the bastards who rally around it. ---

Rest assured I shall try very hard to do just that in the future, whenever and wherever possible. Fuck off, **Silenus**. I stated a fact. With all the other problems we have going on in this country, whether or not someone flies a flag that (like it or not) is part of our history is trivial. ---

It ought to be trivial, I’ll give you that. If we had totally solved the race problem in America, it _would_ be trivial. Alas. ---

The second the traitors raised their flag they ceased being any part of “us.” They became “them,” and needed to be “suppressed with maximum vigor.” Any and every remnant of the Confederacy needs to be obliterated. > > - > - My original example was the Nazi flag rather than the Rising Sun, but Godwinizing your thread in the OP is lame. 😛 Such hysterical nonsense. I hope you don’t feel the same way about the British visiting the US since you know the US were traitors at one point. I doubt intellectual consistency is anything you loons on the left employ though. ---

> [@Miller](#): > > That’s spectacularly incoherent, even for you, **octopus**. That’s fine. I’m not writing to impress dullards that get offended over flags. I just find it funny the hysterical hand-wringing over a flag when much more offensive stuff is pervasive and rarely commented on. Perhaps the OP will be consoled to learn that when I order a Confederate flag I do so via [http://www.thedailybeast.com/articles/2015/09/02/buy-a-confederate-flag-from-a-black-guy.html](http://www.thedailybeast.com/articles/2015/09/02/buy-a-confederate-flag-from-a-black-guy.html).
